Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to Y=6x+3 and passes through the point (-24,5)

Mathematics

Phantasy [73]3 years ago

The slope of the given line is the coefficient of x, 6. The slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that, -1/6. Then the point-slope form of the equation of the line is
  y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
You want m=-1/6, (h, k) = (-24, 5), so your equation is
  y = (-1/6)(x +24) +5
  y = (-1/6)x +1

On a piece of paper, use a protractor to construct a triangle with angle measures of 40 degrees and 60 degrees.
Andru [333]

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation

Well every triangle has to equal 180 degrees.

So you would add the two degrees you already have, which on this one you would get 100.

Then, you would subtract that number from 180 to get 80.


Hope this helps you!!

Help. Solving Multi Step Ratio Problems!
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Part 1) 30\ coupons

Part 2) 12\ sandwiches

Part 3) 60\ push-ups

Part 4) 96\ minutes

Part 5) \$95

Part 6) 1\frac{7}{8}\ cups\ of\ pretzel

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) we know that

At the Green House of Salad , you get a $1 coupon for every 3 salads you buy

so

Using proportion

Find out the number of salads you could buy to get $10 in coupons

\frac{1}{3}=\frac{10}{x} \\\\x=3(10)\\\\x=30\ coupons

Part 2) we know that

Kim orders catering for $35

She spend $5 on a large order of potato salad and the rest on turkey sandwiches

Each sandwich is $2.50

How many sandwiches does Kim buy?

step 1

Find out how many Kim spent on turkey sandwiches

Subtract $5 from $35

35-5=$30

step 2

Using proportion, find out the number of sandwiches

so

\frac{1}{2.50}=\frac{x}{30}\\\\x=30/2.50\\\\x= 12\ sandwiches

Part 3) we know that

Molly does 10 push-ups at the same time as Liza does  15 push-ups

so

Using proportion

Find out how many push-ups Liza does when Molly does 40 push-ups

\frac{10}{15}=\frac{40}{x}\\\\x=15(40)/10\\\\x=60\ push-ups

Part 4) we know that

A shark swim at a speed of 25 miles per hour

The shark rest after 40 miles

How long in minutes, does the shark swim before resting?

Using proportion

Find out how long in minutes the shark swim 40 miles

Remember that

1\ h=60\ min

\frac{25}{60}\ \frac{miles}{minutes}=\frac{40}{x}\ \frac{miles}{minutes}\\\\x=60(40)/25\\\\x=96\ minutes

Part 5) we know that

For every bar of soap that Aly sells, she earns $5

For every mug that Janet sells, she earns twice as much as Aly

Aly sells 5 bars of soap and Janet sells 7 mugs

How much money did they make altogether?

step 1

Find out the amount earned by Aly

using proportion

\frac{1}{5}=\frac{5}{x}\\\\x=5(5)\\\\x=\$25

step 2

Find out the amount earned by Janet

Remember that

For every mug that Janet sells, she earns twice as much as Aly

so

For every mug that Janet sells, she earns 2($5)=$10

using proportion

\frac{1}{10}=\frac{7}{x}\\\\x=10(7)\\\\x=\$70

step 3

Adds the amount earned by Aly plus the amount earned by Janet

25+70=\$95

Part 6) we know that

Ted is making trail mix for a party

He mixes 1 1/2 cups of nuts, 1/4 cup of rising and 1/4 cup of pretzel

How many cups of pretzel does Ted need to make 15 cups of trail mix?

Adds the quantities

1\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4} +\frac{1}{4}=2\ cups\ of \ trail\ mix

That means

For every 2 cups of trail mix we need 1/4 cup of pretzel

using proportion

Find out how many cups of pretzel does Ted need to make 15 cups of trail mix

\frac{2}{(1/4)}=\frac{15}{x}\\\\x=15(1/4)/2\\\\x=\frac{15}{8}\ cups\ of\ pretzel

Convert to mixed number

\frac{15}{8}=\frac{8}{8}+\frac{7}{8}=1\frac{7}{8}\ cups\ of\ pretzel

How do I do this ? I don't know how to find the midpoint in this problem
finlep [7]
If point A is the midpoint then that means line segments XA and AY are equivalent so you can set:
3x=5x-6
(now you solve for x)
2x=6
(divide by 2 on both sides)
x=3

So BASICALLY,
XA= 3x= 3(3) = 9
AY= 5x-6= 5(3)-6 =9
So now you know the length of both sides, add those together and you get 
XY=18

If y is directly proportional to x, and y = 5 when x = 2, what is the value of y when x = 6?
Korolek [52]

it could be 2.2 because every 5 you get 2 so it would be 10 and 4 so when y=6 then x should be 2.2.
